Not Exactly

Raw Story: Tea party favorite Rep. Allen West (R-FL) explained Wednesday that he was helping black voters escape slavery of the “21st-century plantation” overseen by black liberals like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA)... “So I’m here as the modern-day Harriet Tubman, to kind of lead people on the Underground Railroad, away from that plantation into a sense of sensibility,” said West.

We're not sure how participating in the party of the confederate flag and The Southern Strategy makes him the modern-day Harriet Tubman. In fact, it makes him an apologist and promoter of a political party that deliberately built its base with racists.
